Notes to Stations About This Show:

Mrs. Houghton, a certified reading teacher for 15 years and an educator for 20 years, believes that reading and learning should be enjoyable and rewarding experiences, and she utilizes this approach in the series. To date, the introduction to the series, as well as episodes 1 through 34, are airing on 102 public access stations in 27 states, being made available to over 2.8 million households via cable.

NOTE TO DOWNLOADING STATIONS: Episodes 1 through 10 were our "learning episodes." That is, some of them were of irregular length and had less than optimal sound. To get a good sense of the way the series is now, you might want to start by downloading any of episodes 11 through 19.
